PIZZA MUSHROOMS AND SUNDRIED TOMATOES

The Pizza was amazing the service at first was a bit slow of understanding each other but than I realized that I was assuming the wrong thing on my end the FOOD, THE SERVICE AND AMBIANCE, was great

Not good. The taste of the pizza crust reminds me of saltine crackers. The dining room looks like a storage room (boxes, ladder, hand cart).

Thin crust Cheese Pizza - delicious!
Milissa B.

Delicious Pizza! The cheese bread is not too bad too. We ordered through GrubHub and it arrived still hot and fresh

Rubino pizza

This is one of my favorite pizza in the area! Love doing take out or delivery, the drivers always deliver in a timely manner, I think having a lot of drivers help! Nelson is awesome he provides excellent service every time I have dined in.

Slice of veggie pizza. The pieces are small, don't buy a medium.
Nicki J.

The pizza was decent. Unfortunately, I was annoyed by the size of the slices and crust to toppings ratio for the medium. I've never seen such small pieces of pizza for a medium. Maybe it's unfair to compare them to the larger chains however, when I pay close $30 (without tip) for medium pizzas, I expect larger slices then what I received. This was a smedium, a small disguised as a medium. I would hate to see what a small looks like?!? In addition, The King Henry Street has WHOLE roasted garlic cloves on it. There were so many pieces of it, I thought it was chicken. I mean two or three cloves on one baby slice was overkill. Roasted or not, I wasn't happy about it. The veggie pizza was also somewhat bland.

Sierra Hazy, yesss!!!

I thought the pizza was straight up bad. No real redeeming qualities, super greasy, and overall just not good.

Union Sandwich - It's peanut butter and jelly for Bill Lewis of Vero Beach, Florida.

Union Sandwich

Great little sandwich shop!…read more It's very popular at noontime. I took a break from my 4 hour long painting class upstairs in the Torpedo Factory to snag a bite. My timing was good, because I arrived right before a work group of maybe 10 people or so came into place their orders. In addition to a substantive sandwich menu, which includes both hot and cold sandwiches, there's plenty of beverage (including wine) and snack selections. Wearing an oil paint-smudged apron (FYI: the reality is that you're still going to get paint on your clothes even wearing an apron), I aptly ordered the Torpedo Artist. The Torpedo Artist is a hot Panini-like sandwich. You can select your type of meat, cheese and toppings. By default it includes lettuce, sweet peppers and deli oil. My sandwich was well-crafted with plenty of turkey and Swiss cheese. However, I didn't especially like this sandwich. I wish I had asked them to hold the deli oil because it was overly pungent with oregano. All I could taste in my sandwich was oregano. But older and wiser now, I know in the future that if I have them hold the deli oil, I'll end up with a great and tasty sandwich.

A fantastic sandwich location. I love a good sandwich!…read more I was able to place an order for pick up just before I got on the train to head back. Brilliant! I will definitely for this again on my next trip. I ordered a BLT on multigrain, and a PBJ w/honey drizzle on sourdough. The PBJ is off the kids menu. I'll ask for extra peanut butter and jelly so it's to my liking. I couldn't tell if there was honey on it, it could have been. The BLT was fantastic. I loved that it was not oiled high with all the ingredients. A simple sandwich. It fit the bill and didn't over fill me. A true classic. The multi grain bread was the best! I need to find out where that is from. It was that good. I hope I'm able to try the tuna fish and the egg salad sandwiches sometime they look delish! The staff were quiet, but got the job done. There is a small bar like area to eat in, and outdoor tables in a covered area to enjoy your sandwich.

I know when I order from here, I'm getting my ZEN on. Every time I've had their PB Acai smoothie it…read morehas always been amazing, from the peanut drizzle that makes the cup look picture perfect, to the fresh flavor of the Acai. There's something about their peanut butter that's mildly addicting. I think it's homemade (need to verify this). The other day I decided to also try their "Zen rolls" since I saw this on the Uber Eats menu. Let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint! When I took the first bite, at first I noticed how refreshing it tasted, and how delicious the chili sauce was. As I was eating it the veggies tasted fresh, especially the peppers and the strawberry combined with the chili sauce was so good in the most surprising way. Who knew rice paper rolls could be THIS healthy? Despite being tired that day I ended up with renowned energy after eating those rolls. Like it felt super nourishing. These were definitely the most tasty veggie rolls I've had in a while. The sauce is just divine. I love that they really package their stuff so carefully and the box has such a cute aesthetic. Everything truly feels like it's made with love, and their cups have little fake stickers on them to really give your drink a personal touch, something I don't see at other smoothie or juice bars. Everything just has this niche personal feeling to it. If you want a healthy lunch or drink, this is your spot. It definitely feels like you are getting real good nourishment here and I am all for it. I will be back soon for my ACAI fix! Or maybe I'll try their other smoothies like the blue one with spirulina in it. Such a gem!

This was my first visit to Zen Press for brunch, and I ordered the Blue Moon smoothie as it comes…read moreon the menu. The smoothie was creamy, fruity, and visually one of the most striking drinks I've had in a while. The mango and banana gave it a naturally sweet flavor, while the coconut yogurt added a rich texture. I could still pick up some of the blue spirulina underneath everything, which kept it from tasting one-dimensional. The atmosphere was very calm and relaxing. It felt like a place where you could slow down for a few minutes instead of grabbing something and rushing back out the door. One thing I like about this smoothie is that it's easy to customize. After having it before, I've found that ordering it with light banana and no agave makes it taste lighter and lets the mango come through more. That said, the standard version was still enjoyable and is probably the best starting point if you've never tried it before. I'd definitely come back and try other drinks on the menu.

The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous, with warm, inviting décor and a quiet location just off the main drag--something we actually appreciated because it made for a more relaxed, charming experience. We lived in Old Town about 25 years ago, and it was amazing to see how much the area has grown. We started with the cast iron meatballs, and they were outstanding. The meatballs were tender and generously portioned, and the sauce was so good we didn't want to leave a drop behind. For lunch, we split the turkey club, which turned out to be the perfect choice because it was enormous! Every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh, but the real star was the warm sesame-seed bread--light, fresh, and unlike any sandwich bread we've had before. The service was exceptional -- friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. A friend of my husband's, Jesse (possibly a manager? Go Bills!) had recommended Cooper Mill, and it exceeded every expectation. Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, outstanding service! we'll absolutely be back. Highly recommend! - Pat & Julie
